Ad-free videos

Watch millions of videos without ads. This includes ads before and during a video, as well as banner ads, search ads, and video overlay ads. You may still see branding or promotions embedded in YouTube creators' content that isn't controlled by YouTube.

Ad-free videos are supported across all devices and platforms where you can sign in with your Google account—including on compatible smart TVs/gaming consoles and the YouTube, YouTube Music, YouTube Gaming, and YouTube Kids mobile apps, if they're available in your location.

Download videos to watch offline

Download videos and playlists on your mobile device to watch offline. This benefit works on the YouTube, YouTube Music, YouTube Gaming, and YouTube Kids mobile apps, if they're available in your location.

Background play

Continue playing videos on your mobile device while using other apps or when your screen is off. This benefit works on the YouTube, YouTube Music, YouTube Gaming, and YouTube Kids mobile apps, if they're available in your location.

YouTube Red Originals

Watch original series and movies from some of YouTube’s biggest creators, right when they are released and at no extra cost.
